MrsMe Posted September 22, 2011 Share Posted September 22, 2011 On facebook today: ABC person says: Quote: Feeling pretty left out. Sam has yet again left me sitting by myself on the bus to sit with friends. Cant wait til he is 3 and can do this by himself." Friend says: Quote: That is actually great news...he feels comfortable doing it....Maybe when he starts going and you are not there..It will be easy for him. I'm wondering....is this a joke?

Janie Grace Posted September 22, 2011 Share Posted September 22, 2011 I think ABC person is actually quite pleased that her 2-year-old is so social and "advanced" (isn't it usually older kids who prefer friends to parents?). She is framing it as if she is hurt to be funny. When he's 3, she won't have to witness the way he prefers his buddies to his mommy. I cannot imagine the scenario, though... are there preschool buses??? I don't get the title of this thread. This is "one of the things wrong with our world"? You mean that moms think it's good for kids to be independent so young? I wouldn't share this mom's sentiments or her choices, but I can think of a lot of things MORE wrong with the world than this! (Sorry, I guess the molestation/s*xting threads are still on my mind.) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Belacqua Posted September 22, 2011 Share Posted September 22, 2011 Cut the apron strings already, lady! He's two years old and still isn't taking the bus by himself?

MrsMe Posted September 22, 2011 Author Share Posted September 22, 2011 Okay, so here's the answer. Really I thought it was a joke, but I guess not. To each "her" own. But I guess I don't know why he's going on a bus when she stays home....at two. I must be too old to get this. ABC wrote: "It is good news. My son is showing indepence and letting go a little.

Stay at home moms with young children are often told again and again how important it is to make sure your toddler gets proper social time. A clingy child is often shown as a sign that mom can't let go. A kid who would rather play with mom or by himself at the playground is thought to be too dependent on mom or proof that mom needs to cut the chord already. Pre school is seen as extra important if a child didn't go to daycare because they need to learn to play with peers and be social in a group setting so they can be ready for school and the real world. Again, IME this is what is pushed. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

THAT is the start of all that's wrong with the world? I can think of many things wrong with this world: religious extremists, war, starving children, genocide, corporate greed, pollution, lack of clean water...the list could go on and on. A mom who is she's appreciating a little space from her clingy toddler? Nowhere on that list. Not even close.

Guest submarines Posted September 22, 2011 Share Posted September 22, 2011 My instinct is to agree with the OP--babies belong with their mothers, and a 2 yo is practically a baby. However being able to stay with their mothers past the age of 3 or so, is an unheard privilidge for most of parents in the world. Even the most "AP" societies that we so admire, like the tribe in Africa who co-sleep, nurse until the child is 4 yo and so on (I forget now the name of that book), wean abruptly at 4, and send their 4 year olds to a different VILLAGE!

I assumed the mom and the toddler were on a city bus (because why would the mom be on a school bus?). But then I was picturing a couple of toddlers off by themselves in their own seat and the kid going over to sit by them, leaving the mom alone in her seat. That also doesn't make sense. :lol: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bettyandbob Posted September 23, 2011 Share Posted September 23, 2011 Perhaps the child is in a preschool program and perhaps this is a field trip and the mother was one of the parents who signed up to volunteer. My dd went to preschool at 3. They had fieldtrips. Parents needed to be to volunteer to go or they didn't get the chance--at least not to ride the bus. I think sometimes parents followed the bus. I remember some moms doing that for the pumpkin patch trip. Maybe at this child's preschool a parent has to attend the field trip if the child is under 2, but can go alone if the child is 3 +. My dd did not sit next to me on the bus on the fieldtrips. I didn't worry about it then. 10 years later she likes to get in my bed and tell me all about her life and friends. She also likes to hang with me and watch movies. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

sewingmama Posted September 23, 2011 Share Posted September 23, 2011 Man - if that mother thinks her 2yo is "clingy" then I hate to see what she would say about mine. :001_huh: Going off and sitting with his friends sounds very independent to me. My 2yo still has a bottle, paci and takes his blankie everywhere he goes - his only friends are his siblings and he screams and panics if I'm out of sight in public. One of the reasons I decided to homeschool was because I thought my 5yo was too young to go on a bus to school alone (granted we don't have buses designated specifically for schools unless it's private so they ride with the general public). I'm the worst coddler there is :tongue_smilie: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
justamouse Posted September 23, 2011 Share Posted September 23, 2011 In her book, Levine cites studies and surveys to back up her contention that children of affluent parents now exhibit “unexpectedly high rates of emotional problems beginning in junior high school.†This is no accident of demographics, Levine says, but instead is a direct result of the child-raising practices that prevail in well-off American homes; wealthy parents today, she argues, are more likely to be emotionally distant from their children, and at the same time to insist on high levels of achievement, a potentially toxic blend of influences that can create “intense feelings of shame and hopelessness†in affluent children.

bettyandbob Posted September 23, 2011 Share Posted September 23, 2011 Wasn't a field trip. Pre-school...or pre-pre-school. Preschools do go on field trips. There are preschool programs that include 2 year olds. My post states that my dd went to preschool at age 3. And she did go on field trips on the bus owned by the preschool. This was not a public program. It was a private cooperative preschool. I see many preschools in my area taking field trips. I know some preschools take children as young as 2.

I think it's hard to figure out WHY the mother was on the bus with her child, UNLESS it was a field trip or they were on a public bus. Why ride the school bus to school with your child? How does mom get home? I took it as musings of a person who was amused that their clingy child went and sat by, either, classmates on a field trip or by another child on the public bus. Either of those (as long as I sat very near on the public bus) isn't really that strange. And as much time as I spent with my children (as someone who worked, at most, 8 hours a week and mostly none and b'fed exclusively for at least a year, while pumping extra milk for children who would never take it.) I still found myself looking forward to them having some independence (when b'feeding and they would NOT EVER take a bottle, or when they screamed for any sitter including dh.) And yes, I even verbalized that sometimes. Thank goodness my friends didn't blame the decline of the world on me. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I *think* what the post means is that Mom is on the bus with her 2yo on the way to a field trip. Once he turns 3, she won't have to go on the field trips anymore, so she won't be on the bus. My 2yo goes to preschool. The purpose *is* independence because we are working hard on his language skills. There is a family history of severe language issues coupled with 6 older siblings who will talk for him.:glare: After consulting with his speech therapist (who has NO problems with homeschooling), we decided that 2 day a week preschool would help develop his language skills. It is working and I am happy with the arrangement. I don't understand why everything has to be one extreme or another. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Off to feed my kids breakfast before they grow up to resent me... ETA: I also took it as a joke, a reference to parents saying, "I can't wait until you are 16 and can drive yourself!" after running them from activity to activity for so many years. It just sounds funny to say, "Ah, at least when he's three he can ride the bus alone!" as a way of observing your little one growing up. I remember the first time DS3 started playing WITH and not alongside kids at the playground. It's a profound moment, and there is that twinge of, "He doesn't need me for this!" It's not a bad thing.

The mom is going back to SCHOOL or WORK, not ditching the kid and going out to party. Headstart (and Early Headstart) is for low-income families so it's probably safe to assume that mothers in this situation have no choice but to work or go to school in order to try to support their families.

The point is that she's a stay at home mom; um...for who? The point is if perhaps more parents didn't dislike the fact that a 2 year old was clingy they'd spend more time with their kid than ship them off to a school at 2 years old! You can add or take away anything you want to this thread. She's not on a field trip, she doesn't need a break, it's not headstart. She's on a bus for school! Good grief, if you didn't want the kid, then why did you have them? Complaining about clingy kids at 2? Can't wait till their on a bus themselves at 3? Kids shouldn't be raised by a school. They should be raised by a parent and in this case, if she's a stay at home mom, she should do it! A break is something completely different! I can't tell you how many moms can't wait to dump their kids off. And their affluent. Edited September 23, 2011 by alilac Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
